The experimental study on infra-gravity wave     

Hwung-Hweng Hwung  Yu-Hsien Lin  Shih-Chun Hsiao   《Ocean Engineering》2007,34(10):1481-1495

A series of experiments were conducted in a super-wave flume (300 m×5 m×5.2 m) to examine the low-frequency motion induced by waves with different incident steepness, sloping gradients and normalized frequency (sideband space). Two kinds of waves including initial uniform wave train and modulated wave train (one carrier with a pair of sidebands) are utilized for incident wave conditions. From the experimental results, it is found that for a given slope gradient the infra-gravity wave component decreases as wave nonlinearity increases and frequency downshift is a predominant factor. Furthermore, the magnitude of low-frequency component decreases with slope gradients for a given initial wave condition. In addition, the maximum value of low-frequency motion is found to be close to the normalized frequency, δ=1.0.  相似文献   

Impacts of frontal stability and topography on cross-shelf exchange in the Northern Gulf of Mexico     

Nadya T. Vinogradova  Dmitri A. Nechaev 《Journal of Oceanography》2006,62(5):667-680

The shelfbreak wintertime thermal front in the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico often exhibits meandering, eddy formation and warm-water intrusion. A high level of frontal variability plays an essential role in exchange processes across the shelf. This study examines the impacts of local frontal instability and bottom topography on turbulent heat exchange across the front using the results of two numerical models. Analysis of a series of numerical experiments reveals that the flow is baroclinically unstable. Predicted frontal instability contributes significantly to cross-frontal exchange and accounts for about 35% of the total eddy heat flux. Onshore eddy heat flux has the highest intensity at the frontal position. In addition, eddy activity and heat flux are sensitive to variation of bottom topography. For topographic features and frontal characteristics that are typical of the area, bottom steepness enhances the flux and is nearly proportional to the cross-frontal heat exchange. The study attempts to explain physical mechanisms that drive frontal circulation in the area and to quantify heat transport across the shelf. Estimated heat fluxes can provide important information for climate and ecosystem modeling of the Mississippi Bight.  相似文献

A Generation Mechanism for Mesoscale Eddies in the Kuril Basin of the Okhotsk Sea: Baroclinic Instability Caused by Enhanced Tidal Mixing     

Kay?I.?OhshimaEmail author  Yasushi?Fukamachi  Takeshi?Mutoh  Masaaki?Wakatsuchi 《Journal of Oceanography》2005,61(2):247-260

Mesoscale eddies, particularly anticyclonic ones, are dominant features in the Kuril Basin of the Okhotsk Sea. In 1999, both surface drifter and hydrographic observations caught the same anticyclonic eddy northwest of Bussol’ Strait, which has a diameter of ∼100 km, typical surface velocity of 0.2–0.3 m s⁻¹, and less dense core extending to a depth of ∼1200 m. Based on an idea that the generation of mesoscale eddies is caused by strong tidal mixing in and around Kuril Straits, we have conducted a series of three-dimensional numerical model experiments, in which strong tidal mixing is simply parameterized by increasing coefficients of vertical eddy viscosity and diffusivity along the eastern boundary. Initially, a regular series of disturbances with a wavelength of ∼70 km starts to develop. The disturbances can be clearly explained by a linear instability theory and regarded as the baroclinic instability associated with the near-surface front formed in the region between the enhanced mixing and offshore regions. In the mature phase, the disturbances grow large enough that some eddies pinch off and advect offshore (westward), with the scale of disturbances increasing gradually. Typical eddy scale and its westward propagation speed are ∼100 km and ∼0.6 km day⁻¹, respectively, which are consistent with the observations by satellites. The westward propagation can be explained partly due to nonlinear effect of self-offshore advection and partly due to the β-effect. With the inclusion of the upper ocean restoring, the dominance of anticyclonic eddy, extending from surface to a depth of ∼1200 m, can be reproduced.  相似文献   

高原低涡与西南涡结伴而行的不同活动形式个例的环境场和位涡分析   总被引：5，自引：3，他引：2  

郁淑华  高文良 《大气科学》2017,41(4):831-856

本文利用NCEP/NCAR-FNL再分析资料、历史天气图、青藏高原低涡切变线年鉴,通过分析1998~2015年持续高原涡影响西南涡结伴而行（简称两涡伴行）过程的活动形式,并对不同活动形式的个例进行了环境场与位涡分析,得出了不同活动形式两涡伴行的环境场特征,揭示了冷空气活动、200 hPa急流对不同活动形式的两涡伴行的影响原因。结果表明:（1）两涡伴行有三种活动形式,它们是高原涡诱发西南涡、高原涡与西南涡耦合以及同一天气系统下两涡,其中以高原涡诱发西南涡的活动形式占多数。（2）两涡伴行的500 hPa环境场主要是40°N以北东亚环流经向度不强,纬向气流主导,受500 hPa低槽、冷空气活动的影响;200 hPa环境场主要与200 hPa急流的强度、距急流核距离、在急流两侧的位置密切相关;不同活动形式的西南涡上空200 hPa、500 hPa环境场特征是有差别的。（3）受500 hPa低槽、冷空气影响的两涡伴行中的西南涡的生成是通过500 hPa高位涡空气伸入西南涡上空,造成西南涡上空斜压不稳定所至;在西南涡上空500 hPa斜压不稳定增强且具有较强的斜压不稳定时西南涡加强;200 hPa西南风急流影响高原涡诱发或耦合、加强西南涡是分别在高空高位涡下传影响到高原涡与西南涡上空、西南涡的情况下实现的,同一天气系统下,高空高位涡下传只影响高原涡,而未影响西南涡。  相似文献   

Investigating the Waterfront: The Entangled Sociomaterial Transformations of Coastal Space in Karnataka,India     

Alin Kadfak  Per Knutsson 《社会与自然资源》2017,30(6):707-722

Triggered by urbanization and changing land use, coastal transformation is a rapidly increasing phenomenon in the global south, driving dramatic livelihoods impacts. However, the existing literature on small-scale fisheries (SSF) has paid little attention to the way coastal transformations shape conditions for SSF livelihoods communities. This study proposes a new orientation in SSF studies by exploring the assemblage of entangled sociomaterial processes that account for coastal transformations by investigating waterfront transformation in a fishing community in Karnataka, India. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, we conclude that an entanglement of sociomaterial processes produces unequal outcomes among stakeholders that subsequently reinforce the political and economic marginalization of certain groups of waterfront users. Moreover, the investigated context-specific waterfront assemblage intimately connects to the broader context of national fishery policy, urbanization, and tourism, directing the way coastal space can and should be transformed. Such an analysis contributes to the understanding of changing livelihoods in SSF communities.  相似文献   

斜压不稳定理论的发展历程分析     

张萌  杨萍  许小峰  王式功 《气象学报》2018,76(2):315-321

斜压不稳定理论是中高纬度地区天气尺度扰动生成和发展的机制,是继长波理论之后大气动力学上的又一重大进展,对现代天气预报具有重要的指导意义。按照斜压不稳定理论发展的时间脉络,阐述了赵九章、查尼和伊迪在斜压不稳定方面开展的研究工作,分析了3位科学家各自的研究特点及历史贡献。赵九章1946年发表在《Journal of Meteorology》上的论文,最早提出了"斜压不稳定"这一概念,给出了不稳定的临界波长,并阐述了在不稳定扰动情况下能量的转换,以及不稳定波对大气环流带来的可能影响,尽管得出的不稳定临界波长与观测差别较大,但其对波-流相互作用的讨论在当时是超前的。查尼于1947年采用滤波和尺度分析等方法,将大气扰动方程简化为一个可以求解的系统,推导出大气稳定状态的判据,建立了斜压不稳定理论,其结果与实况比较接近;并据此把准地转模式成功应用于数值天气预报实践中,促使数值天气预报获得首次成功。1949年,伊迪在查尼研究工作的基础上通过合理的简化方法,得到了更为简洁的模型。最后,通过对比他们的研究思路,重点分析了赵九章未能使得斜压不稳定理论提前一年建立的原因:由于其研究思路始终局限在大气水平运动上,忽略了斜压系统发展中散度项的贡献,因而未能抓住天气系统发生、发展的本质,致使其最终与斜压不稳定理论的成功建立失之交臂,其论文本身存在的一些亮点也因此被后人忽视。   相似文献

新疆地区典型潜在震源区大震年发生率的估计     

张永庆  谢富仁  张效亮  任俊杰 《震灾防御技术》2009,4(3):275-288

利用活动断裂定量研究资料（滑动速率、古地震等）,结合新疆地区的地震构造环境特征分析,研究了典型潜在震源区大震复发模式,建立了具有区域特征的混合模型,以此评定了新疆地区典型潜在震源区大震的年发生率。混合模型由截断G-R关系模型和特征地震模型构成,计算时先分别计算两个模型的大震分震级档年发生率,然后根据潜在震源区地震地质资料的完备性情况、可靠程度以及大震孕育的区域性特征为两个模型的分震级档结果赋予一定权重,最后求两个模型的加权和。大震复发间隔的计算中利用汶川地震与集集地震的最大垂直位错和平均垂直位错统计关系约束了逆冲型断裂的平均位错量,潜源区的大震年发生率的计算考虑了级联破裂问题。结果表明,本研究所得高震级档大震年发生率比第三代、第四代地震区划图小,文中对这一现象产生的原因进行了初步分析。  相似文献
